"For the first time in Lithuania, a study of the central business districts (Central Business District, CBD) of 10 Northern European cities showed that the Vilnius CBD, located on the right bank of the Neris river, is comparable to large European cities in terms of office quality."
"Original in Lithuanian: "Vilniuje tokiu komerciniu centru (angl. central business district – CBD) tapo Konstitucijos prospektas, duodantis didžiulę naudą miesto infrastruktūrai, ekonomikai ir keliantis miesto prestižą, tačiau kaip šios vietos paklausa verslo segmente gali keistis artimiausiu metu?""
"Translation in English: "In Vilnius, area around Konstitucijos prospekt (Constitution Avenue) became city's central business district which brings huge benefits to the city's infrastructure, economy and prestige, but how is the demand for this location in the business segment likely to change in the near future?""

Young though he was, his radiant energy produced such an impression of absolute reliability that Hedgewar made him the first sarkaryavah, or general secretary, of the RSS.
- Gopal Mukund Huddar
Largely because of the influence of communists in London, Huddar's conversion into an enthusiastic supporter of the fight against fascism was quick and smooth. The ease with which he crossed from one worldview to another betrays the fact that he had not properly understood the world he had grown in.
Huddar would have been 101 now had he been alive. But then centenaries are not celebrated only to register how old so and so would have been and when. They are usually celebrated to explore how much poorer our lives are without them. Maharashtrian public life is poorer without him. It is poorer for not having made the effort to recall an extraordinary life.
I regret I was not there to listen to Balaji Huddar's speech [...] No matter how many times you listen to him, his speeches are so delightful that you feel like listening to them again and again.
By the time he came out of Franco's prison, Huddar had relinquished many of his old ideas. He displayed a worldview completely different from that of the RSS, even though he continued to remain deferential to Hedgewar and maintained a personal relationship with him.
